Hi,
Thanks for the inputs. my req. will not satisfy your suggestion. My req. is I have to load different Jsps depending on the user profile. eg <http://profile.eg/>. for user with profile = "abc", i will have JSps like 1_abc.jsp,2_abc.jsp,3_abc.jsp for user with profile = def , i will have jsps like 1_def.jsp,2_def.jsp etc.. one way of solving this is to mention all the Jsp for users with different profile in the results and then forward it in the action itself. like <action name=action1 class = action1> <result>1_abc.jsp</result> <result>1_def.jsp</result> </action> <action name=action2 class = action2> <result>2_abc.jsp</result> <result>2_def.jsp</result> </action> return corresponding result in each action based on the users profile. but the pblm here for each action the application developer has to define results for each user. I am thinking of moving this to framework. Below is the new approach. <action name=action1 class = action1> <result>1.jsp</result> </action> <action name=action2 class = action2> <result>2.jsp</result> </action> <action name= "*"> <result>/{1}.jsp</result> </action> Now , in an action1.class & action2.class depending on the user profile i construt 1_abc.action or 1_def.action and 2_abc.action or 2_def.action respectively . and if i can forward with 1_abc.action the below definition present in the STruts.xml will take care of forwarding it to 1_abc.jsp /1_def.jsp depending on the user automatically. <action name= "*"> <result>/{1}.jsp</result> </action> FOr this i need to programmatically forward to an action so that i can leverage the above mentioned facility. I hope i have made things clear.Let me know if have any suggestions. Regards, Arun. The way I solve this is by returning the value you want and setting up the action chain on struts.xml file: Example: class MyAction 1 .. { public String execute(){ if(foo) return "foo"; else return "bar"; } Then on the Strutus XML file: <action name= "MyAction" class. = ....> <result name="foo" type="chain"> FooAction</result> <result name="bar" type="chain"> BarAction</result> ... </action> PS. Make sure you use type="chain"! Hope this helps.
